Website Measurement and Customization Technologies (E.g., Cookies)

ACHCH uses web measurement and customization technologies to make achch.org function better for visitors and to better understand how the public is using the website. This means that when you visit a page on achch.org, the internet browser on your computer may download and save a small file from achch.org (commonly called a “cookie”) so that our website can recognize your specific computer and browser when you use achch.org in the future. HCH does not use technologies that track your interactions on non-achch.org websites.

These technologies fall into two categories, based on the length of time they remain active: 1) Single-session cookies last only as long as a web browser is open. Once the browser is closed, the data files on your computer are deleted; and 2) Multi-session cookies last beyond a single session of browsing a website; this allows a website to recognize a computer or user for defined amount of time.​HCH uses a third-party analytics provider (currently Google Analytics) to analyze the data collected through the session and persistent metrics cookies. The third-party analytics provider does not receive personally identifiable information through these cookies and does not combine, match, or cross-reference achch.org information with any other information. Please review the third-party analytics provider’s privacy policy for additional information.

These cookies collect information similar to that automatically received and stored on the servers hosting achch.org; they do not collect personal identifying information. HCH generally does not access or store the raw information collected through these cookies. We do view aggregate statistical analyses prepared by our third-party analytics provider, but these analyses do not include any personally identifiable information. We do not sell, rent, exchange, or otherwise disclose this information to persons or organizations outside the County. In some cases, we may share information with other federal agencies in response to lawful law enforcement requests or to protect achch.org from security threats.

These third parties may use web measurement and customization technologies (such as cookies) in conjunction with the provision of this content or functionality.
